knife&fork Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 You stick with what's actually in the book - and in this case LoS for movement ain't in the book. If you want to play it that way, there's nothing in the book that says that LoS can't be measured in the other phases. Indeed, if you look at the infiltrate USR you have an example right there of LoS being used outside of the shooting phase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesI Posted January 17, 2012 Author Share Posted January 17, 2012 ok, I think this discussion is more fitting for the Official Rules forum. Lets take the debate of Rage dreads based on the new Chaos Fire Frenzy FAQ there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Willy Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 I ve always found it easier to assume that in movement everything can see all around itself until it hits something it can't see through even if it's a tank and drawing LOS for shooting only applies to the gunner not the vehicle. For the Stormtrooper or Russ example, I'd say the Dread would just pivot and attack the Troopers but in shooting would be forced to stay in place and draw LOS from whatever direction the gun is facing after it's movement.

Claws of Corax Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 As for the FAQ. I am surprised to see that Sanguine Sword Psy power remains unchanged (unless I am mistaken) Str 10 Librarian lasting the whole game.. WAAC players will be happy. I personally role the psy test each time i use it for fairness. Claws Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone who did would be ostracized from the groups I've played with. I roll Sword every assault phase I want it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morollan Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 I also roll every phase but it's a nice one to have up your sleeve if you happen to come across some WAAC rules lawyer who tries stupid stuff like IC slingshots or firing template weapons at different targets to the rest of the unit.

Grimtooth Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Congrats on getting the rolling to hit for Blood Lance as we got for JotWW. Cries could be heard across the Imperium from other players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesI Posted January 17, 2012 Author Share Posted January 17, 2012 Congrats on getting the rolling to hit for Blood Lance as we got for JotWW. Cries could be heard across the Imperium from other players. It was the right ruling in both cases. As worded neither make sense needing to roll to hit.

BLACK BLΠFLY Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 I wonder why lash now has to roll to hit. G :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
appiah4 Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 I wonder why lash now has to roll to hit. G ;) Because a power that allowed you to move opponent models was stupid and stupidly OP to begin with, and now they made it 1/6 less stupid and stupidly OP?

King Willy Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 I beg to differ before they could only move it the max they could normally move, infantry 6 inchs even if they rolled a 12, the best part of the power was the pinning test and being somewhat cheaper then other powers. Compared with say drawing a line and killing most stuff along it or being able to smash a LR. Lash was good for setting up templates or for closing assault distance but if you scattered or not a zerker the power is simply a way to pin.
